Zachary Quinto has a totally off-the-wall speculation about what could happen in the next Star Trek. In the True Blood season finale, Sookie steps up at last. Plus, massive set footage shows the havocWorld War Z will wreak on Philly.

Spoilers ahead!

Star Trek 2

This is probably just an actor's speculation, but Zachary Quinto hints that one of the main events of the first film could be undone in the sequel:

I imagine we're going to pick up right where we left off, but it could be a completely different timeline. They've basically now created a device that allows them to go anywhere with it. I mean, we could be in a parallel universe, we could be in a parallel time. That's the joy of science-fiction. Vulcan could be back.

The Avengers

Chris Hemsworth may very well have confirmed that Captain America will, in fact, be leading the Avengers. Comic Book Movie points out a nearly inaudible exchange in this video. The interview asks, "Chris was the leader and you guys follow him?" and Hemsworth replies: "He's the boss, yeah. Yeah." Now, it may just be that Evans is the ringleader among the cast, but it seems more likely that he's actually the team's leader. [Comic Book Movie]

Caleb Landry Jones (AKA Banshee in X-Men: First Class) is joining this vampire pic with Saoirse Ronan and Gemma Arterton as the male lead. The synopsis:

The actresses play a "mother and daughter who are vampires and arrive in a small British town revealing their secret to the town. Jones plays a teenager dying of leukemia which in turns forces him to struggle with his mortality, causing Saorsie Ronan's character to struggle with her own immortality."

Episode 13 will be called "The Wedding of River Song" and will feature the lines: "I don't want to marry you" and "I don't want to murder you." Also, Simon Callow (who appeared way back in season one as Charles Dickens) will guest. [ComBom]

Steven Moffat makes some promises for this fall's episodes:

Answers will be given. We're not playing at really being Lost. You will know what's really going on on that beach, you will know the truth about River Song, which you don't know yet…It's pretty much answer, answer, answer in a way...But by the end of episode 13, new things will have begun...The great thing about the River Song conundrum is that every time you get an answer, it makes you ask another question.

He also insists that the show will have the regular number of episodes in 2012, but the season will just start later. He describes Amy Pond as "bad girl in the TARDIS" and says he introduced her with the possibility that she could be River's mother, but it wasn't a sure thing at the time. [The Daily Beast]

But best of all, HBO has released spoileriffic summaries for the final two episodes of the season. Sounds like Sookie's fae abilities will play a major role in the conflict between the vampires and Wiccans, and there's going to be undead shenanigans on Samhain:

"And When I Die": It's Samhain, Wicca's greatest holy day, and spirits of the dead surface in Bon Temps, giving Sookie valuable allies to combat Marnie's newest incarnation. Lafayette's latest medium encounter imperils his relationship with Jesus; Jason (Ryan Kwanten) finds confession good for the soul, but not the body; Alcide makes a heartfelt appeal to the woman he loves; Terry (Todd Lowe) receives an unexpected visitor at Merlotte's; Sam and Luna (Janina Gavankar) envision a storybook ending, for once; Nan (Jessica Tuck) wears out her welcome with Bill and Eric. Debbie confronts Sookie and Tara (Rutina Wesley) with deadly consequences, and the denizens of Bon Temps brace for a new crisis with a familiar face.
